One of the benefits of using Adobe Connect is the available advanced audio options, such as integrated telephony. The numerous benefits of integrated telephony enhance any web meeting experience and its overall quality.

The following are some of the benefits of telephony integration:

-Control the teleconference call through the web conference interface

-Enjoy the convenience of recording a single, synchronized archive of the Adobe Connect meeting, as well as audio from the teleconference.

-Integrated telephony allows for a unified workflow (streamlined scheduling, notifying and attending conferences)

Host Benefits

Hosts of meetings have access to the following call controls:

-With just one click, the host can start or stop the teleconference.

-The host of the meeting can dial out to existing participants in the web conference or add phone-only participants who can be called to join the conference.

-It is possible to mute all or selected meeting participants (Our favorite feature!).

-Participants can be put on hold. In addition, the volume can be altered for certain participants, which is helpful as everyone has different connections.

-The host can disconnect phone participants with a single click.

-There is a “record meeting” function that can record the teleconference and web conference simultaneously in order to create a single archive of the meeting.

With all of the above benefits businesses can expect an enhanced web conferencing experience. To discuss the benefits of advanced telephony integration, contact us at Advantage Connect Pro.

Managed service providers generally have an advanced set of tools and skillsets at their disposal in order to solve problems and issues quicker and more effectively than internal IT departments. They are also given insight to data that can be invaluable for their clients. The majority of IT departments are focused on fixing a problem as quickly as possible, while managed service providers can look at the entire system as a whole from an informed outsider’s point of view, and as a result, gain access to a range of information that can result in added benefits for a company.

The following are several benefits of using managed services:

1 –Efficiency – Managed service providers apply a “firefighting method” of tracking issues and responding to them immediately. When there is a fire, you call a fire department that has an advanced set of tools and skills that have been made specifically to resolve the issue as quickly as possible. Businesses that employ the use of managed services are delightfully surprised at how efficient user problems can be instantly tracked and remediated.

2 – Less Downtime and Risk – Due to the superior tools available to managed service providers, the majority of potential problems are prevented before they even occur. This means that there is less downtime.

3 – Important and Beneficial Data – Managed service providers are constantly monitoring the performance of their clients’ files, network, bandwidth and database. All of this information is stored meaning that clients can go back and use it as a means of analyzing trends, enabling them to make better informed decisions.

4 – Custom Dashboards – Clients have access to all of their historical data through a client portal. In addition to this, each dashboard can be customized according to the needs of each person in a company. CEOs, for example, may wish to have an indicator on their dashboard when something is amiss in the system.

5 – Patch Management – The majority of IT departments are far too busy handling issues that require immediate attention, meaning that patch management is not given the attention it requires. As a result, businesses are at risk for security vulnerabilities and downtime. Managed service providers manage patches continually, thereby eliminating potential risk down the line.

6 – Periodic Reviews – Managed service providers offer clients periodic reviews which demonstrate where systems are most at risk and how issues can be prevented in the future. Rather than tackling problems only as they come, managed service providers have their eye on your system at all times and can help their clients better understand their infrastructure.

The above are just several of the benefits that come with employing the use of a managed service provider. Contact Advantage Connect Pro and find out how we can help improve your business.
